Every connection starts at the endpoint, never at the server, so Borg Backup Server can back up Linux, Mac, and Windows machines behind NAT and firewalls without opening a single inbound port. A lightweight agent on each machine polls for tasks over HTTPS, pushes deduplicated archives over SSH, and reports live progress. Append-only SSH access means an endpoint can add and restore archives but never prune or delete them. The dashboard shows backup charts, server stats, and active jobs at a glance. Plans run from hourly to monthly, several per client, built from reusable directory templates for common server roles, with per-plan retention from hourly to yearly. Lost a file? Browse the archive tree in your browser, tick what you need, and restore it to the client or download a .tar.gz. MySQL and PostgreSQL dumps run before each backup and restore as a copy or a replacement. Repositories can live on the server, on BorgBase, Hetzner, or rsync.net, and mirror to S3-compatible storage such as AWS, Wasabi, or Backblaze B2. Apprise alerts reach more than 100 services, and a nightly report lands in your inbox. Two-factor login and role-based access guard the console. Upgrades roll out to the server and every agent together, and the server backs itself up daily.

Borg UI is a self-hosted web management interface for BorgBackup that eliminates complex command-line syntax by organizing deduplicated backups, automated pruning schedules, and interactive file restorations into an intuitive graphical control center. System administrators connect local drives, remote SSH hosts, and SFTP endpoints to establish resilient storage repositories guarded by client-side encryption and cryptographic authentication. The centralized dashboard visualizes storage capacity, compression ratios, deduplication savings, and the health status of active backup jobs in real time. Configurable backup plans schedule automated cron jobs with granular retention rules, executing pre-backup database dumps and filesystem snapshots before running incremental syncs and background integrity checks. Users browse multi-version archive filesystems directly from the web browser, searching file trees and extracting individual files or entire folders without manual command line extraction. The platform orchestrates remote fleet backups by deploying SSH keys across client machines, tracking connection health, and executing non-disruptive background operations. Comprehensive alert routing dispatches real-time job status notifications, failure warnings, and storage alerts across Discord, Telegram, Slack, and email using integrated multi-channel messaging services.

Engineers who have outgrown Duplicati or rsync scripts tend to appreciate Kopia's design: encrypted, compressed, content-deduplicated snapshots in Go, stored in a repository on any storage you control - S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob, Backblaze B2, SFTP, WebDAV, or a plain filesystem. Encryption is mandatory and end-to-end: every block is encrypted client-side with AES-256-GCM or ChaCha20-Poly1305 using keys derived from your repository password, and even file names never leave the machine in plaintext. Blocks are packed into 20-40 MB blobs with random names, so the storage provider learns nothing about content or structure. Deduplication is automatic and content-based - identical data across files, snapshots, and even multiple machines backing up to the same repository is stored once. Policies govern everything per-directory: compression choice, retention (hourly through annual), scheduling, and ignore rules. Incremental snapshots are point-in-time records you can mount and browse like a filesystem. This deployment runs the Kopia repository server with its web UI, centralizing backups from multiple client machines over an authenticated API - each client connects with the server URL and certificate fingerprint, and users only see their own snapshots. Error correction, high-latency-tolerant caching, and both CLI and GUI round it out.

Backrest turns the command-line restic backup engine into a visual, browser-managed disaster recovery platform that schedules encrypted snapshots, orchestrates repository maintenance, and restores individual files from a unified web dashboard. Import existing restic repositories or initialize new encrypted backup stores across Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, SFTP servers, local directories, and any storage provider supported by rclone. Define granular backup plans with directory inclusion lists, glob exclusion rules, and flexible schedules driven by cron expressions, hourly intervals, or last-run-time clocks that prevent missed backups after server downtime. Automated retention policies handle snapshot forgetting, repository pruning, and cryptographic integrity checks in the background without manual intervention. When a file is accidentally deleted or corrupted, open the interactive snapshot tree browser to inspect historical directory structures and download or restore specific files directly to disk. Pre-backup and post-backup shell command hooks let administrators dump databases or pause containers before snapshots start, while configurable alerts dispatch status reports to Discord, Slack, Gotify, Healthchecks, and Shoutrrr endpoints whenever an operation succeeds or fails.

Encrypted, incremental, compressed backups on storage you already have - Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Google Drive, Azure, OneDrive, Dropbox, MEGA, Storj, WebDAV, SFTP, FTP, SMB, or a plain local disk - is what the MIT-licensed Duplicati has quietly done for years. Its security model is Trust No One: every block is encrypted with AES-256 (or a local GPG instance) before leaving the machine, and the passphrase never travels, so the storage provider holds only ciphertext. The block-based storage engine gives the best of both backup worlds: after one initial full backup, only changed data blocks upload - modify a tiny part of a huge file and only that part transfers - yet every backup version restores like a full backup in a single operation, with no incremental chains to replay. Deduplication and compression keep remote storage growth slow even across years of versions. A web interface manages everything: the built-in scheduler keeps backups current automatically, flexible filters select folders, file types, or custom patterns, retention policies prune old versions, and an integrated updater flags new releases. On compatible object-lock backends, immutable (WORM) storage protects backup data from ransomware that reaches the credentials. Runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, free even for commercial use.

On a schedule you choose, Pluton backs up your folders to cloud storage and other disks, then lets you verify and restore every snapshot and see exactly what happened in a clean, self-hosted web dashboard. Three copies: every plan writes to a primary storage and can replicate to up to two more, so the 3-2-1 rule is a toggle in the plan wizard rather than a weekend project. Two kinds of media: pair a local disk or mounted drive with Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2, Google Drive, Dropbox, pCloud, SFTP, S3-compatible buckets, or any of 70+ connectors, and press Verify to test a connection before trusting it. One place to look: the plan page charts file counts and sizes over a selectable range, a health strip colors recent runs, and a live panel counts files, bytes, and time remaining while each mirror initializes and replicates. Zero mysteries: every backup keeps a timestamped event timeline from dry run to pruning, and plan logs filter by level and task, search messages, and download as a file. Schedules run from every few minutes to monthly, including chosen weekdays; retention keeps daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots; and scripts can run before or after a job. Alerts reach you by email, Slack, Discord, or ntfy, and optional two-factor sign-in guards the dashboard.

Replace fragile cron scripts and complex terminal commands with Zerobyte, a self-hosted web control center that schedules, monitors, and restores encrypted backups across any cloud or local storage infrastructure. System administrators can connect local drives, NFS shares, SMB exports, WebDAV mounts, and SFTP endpoints as backup sources with custom inclusion and exclusion rules. The visual interface lets you dispatch incremental, client-side encrypted snapshots to local directories, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob, and forty cloud storage providers supported via rclone. You can schedule automated jobs using cron expressions, configure custom retention windows to automatically prune obsolete archives, and run repository health checks directly from the browser. Interactive file trees allow operators to inspect historical snapshot contents, download specific documents, or restore entire directory structures to their original locations in a single click. Configurable pre-backup and post-backup HTTP webhooks help pause databases before snapshots, execute dump commands, and alert teams through Discord, Slack, Telegram, or ntfy notifications. Multi-repository mirroring duplicates critical backups to secondary cloud providers for disaster recovery.

With over 7,500 GitHub stars and 1 million Docker pulls — making it the most popular open-source database backup tool on GitHub ahead of pgBackRest and WAL-G — Databasus delivers production-grade backup management through a designer-polished web interface that replaces complex configuration files and CLI-only workflows. The platform supports PostgreSQL 14-18, MySQL 5.7-8, MariaDB 10-12, and MongoDB 4.2-8 with logical backups via pg_dump and mysqldump, while PostgreSQL 17+ enables physical backups using the native pg_basebackup engine with block-level incremental support via pg_basebackup --incremental and continuous WAL streaming via pg_receivewal for Point-in-Time Recovery to any second between backups. Storage destinations include local disk, AWS S3, CloudFlare R2, Google Drive, Azure Blob Storage, SFTP, NAS, and rclone-backed targets, while built-in AES-256-GCM encryption secures both backup files and stored credentials. Restore verification runs automated recovery into throwaway Docker containers, validating backups by comparing schema counts, table structure, and row counts against the source database — proving recoverability rather than merely checking checksums. The notification system integrates with Slack, Discord, Telegram, email, and webhooks for real-time backup status alerts. Deployment options span a single Docker container, Docker Compose with Caddy for automatic HTTPS, Helm charts for Kubernetes clusters, or a one-line install script. SSH tunnel support reaches databases in closed networks through bastion hosts without public exposure.

Automating PostgreSQL backup lifecycles across local volumes and S3-compatible object storage, PG Back Web gives database administrators and developers a self-hosted web console to schedule, encrypt, monitor, download, and restore database dumps without writing manual shell scripts. Instead of maintaining fragile crontab entries across individual database servers, you register PostgreSQL 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, or 18 instances in one dashboard and define recurring backup schedules with custom retention policies and timezone-aware timestamps. Each backup execution can target local directories or multiple S3 buckets across providers like AWS S3, MinIO, Backblaze B2, and Cloudflare R2, with built-in connection testing and presigned download links for rapid archive retrieval. To protect sensitive production records at rest and in transit, the platform applies PGP encryption to dump files while encrypting stored database connection strings and bucket credentials. Real-time execution logs record exact archive sizes, durations, and output streams, and the web interface lets operators trigger on-demand dumps, duplicate existing backup jobs, or run direct browser-based restorations when disaster recovery is required. Automated background health checks continuously verify connectivity to every registered PostgreSQL database and storage destination, firing configurable HTTP webhooks to Slack, Discord, or incident pipelines whenever a backup completes, fails, or changes health status. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

When a bad migration or disk failure strikes at 3 AM, DBackup guarantees that your PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, SQL Server, Redis, Valkey, SQLite, and Firebird databases, along with the application directories that belong to them, are encrypted, verified, and ready to restore in a few clicks. Connect directly over TCP or tunnel through SSH with zero agents installed on your target servers. Bundle database dumps and Docker volumes or remote SFTP directories into a single atomic job so your schema and uploaded assets always share the exact same recovery point. Every archive is compressed with Brotli or GZIP, sealed with AES-256-GCM encryption before leaving the host, and pushed simultaneously to up to 14 storage backends including Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Hetzner, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, SMB, and WebDAV. Reusable Grandfather-Father-Son retention policies prune daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly snapshots automatically. Need to inspect live tables or recover a single file? Use the built-in Database Explorer, remap a dump into a staging schema, or extract individual files over HTTP byte ranges without downloading the entire archive. Even if your backup server goes offline, the downloadable Recovery Kit decrypts standard SQL dumps and plain TAR archives using a standalone script. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Database administrators and backend engineers managing production PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, and Redis instances use Velld to centralize scheduled backups, storage retention, and disaster recovery in a single self-hosted control plane. You can register multiple database connections across staging and production environments, test connectivity with one click, and route traffic through encrypted SSH bastion tunnels using password or private-key authentication to reach isolated private subnets. Flexible cron schedules and preset hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly intervals automate snapshot creation, while configurable retention policies purge expired archives from local volumes or S3-compatible object storage buckets after seven, fourteen, thirty, or ninety days. An integrated backup comparison tool renders split or unified line-by-line diffs between any two snapshots so you can inspect schema changes or data drift before triggering a guided database restore or downloading compressed dump files. The real-time monitoring dashboard tracks backup completion rates, total storage consumption, and execution histories alongside automated email and webhook alerts that notify your team immediately if a scheduled job fails.

Portabase takes a zero-trust approach to database backups: lightweight Rust/Tokio agents deploy next to each database, encrypt dumps with AES-GCM before data ever leaves the host, and poll the Next.js control plane outbound every five seconds requiring zero inbound firewall rules. This architecture contains blast radius if the dashboard is compromised while supporting ten engines with stable backup and restore: PostgreSQL 12 through 18, MySQL 5.7 through 9, MariaDB 10 and 11, MongoDB 4 through 8, SQLite 3.x, Redis 2.8+, Valkey 7.2+, Firebird 3.0 through 5.0, Microsoft SQL Server 2017 through 2022 including Azure SQL, and Docker volumes on Engine 20.10+. Encrypted backups store on configurable backends including local filesystems, any S3-compatible provider (AWS, MinIO, RustFS), Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob Storage. Cron-based scheduling with Grandfather-Father-Son retention policies automates backup lifecycle management, while on-demand restore targets any compatible server for cross-environment recovery. The CLI installs agents with a single command and auto-updates when new versions ship. A RESTful API with MCP server integration enables automation from CI/CD pipelines and AI agent workflows. Developed by a non-profit under Apache-2.0. 1,270+ stars and 174 releases since October 2024. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console.

Databasement puts scheduled backup and restore for nine database engines behind one polished web interface, deployed as a single Docker container on port 2226.

Picture your object storage scattered across a home server, a friend's rack, and a cheap VPS in another country, still answering S3 requests like nothing happened: that is exactly the deployment Garage was built for. Every object is replicated to three zones, so losing a node, a disk, or an entire site degrades the cluster instead of destroying your data. Applications talk to it with the standard S3 API: create buckets, upload objects in multiple parts, list and copy them, and hand out access keys that are scoped per bucket. A separate web endpoint serves static websites straight from buckets with CORS support, which covers personal sites, documentation, and release downloads without another server in the chain. The whole system ships as one dependency-free binary that asks for about a gigabyte of RAM and any x86-64 or ARM CPU from the last decade, second-hand hardware very much included. There is deliberately no consensus protocol to babysit: nodes gossip their cluster layout, tolerate 200-millisecond links, and keep serving reads while parts of the fleet are unreachable. Deuxfleurs runs it in production for their own hosting, and common pairings include restic or rclone backup targets, Matrix media storage, and Nix binary caches.

Tools and applications that already speak S3 can use RustFS as their storage backend, so backup jobs, data pipelines, and services keep working while the data stays on infrastructure you control. A built-in web console on port 9001 manages buckets, object uploads and downloads, access keys, users, groups, and IAM policies, with a status page for cluster health, capacity, and scanner activity. Versioning, Object Lock retention, bucket quotas, and server-side encryption with Vault or AWS KMS backends protect objects once they land. Lifecycle rules expire or transition data, and tiering moves cold objects to remote targets such as Amazon S3 or Wasabi. Bucket replication and site replication keep clusters in sync, and event notifications call webhooks when objects change. Single-node mode suits a lab or small server, while distributed mode adds erasure coding, bitrot protection, background healing, and pool expansion or decommissioning as capacity grows. Sign-in works with local users, OIDC single sign-on, or OpenStack Keystone, and FTPS and WebDAV are available by default, with SFTP and the Swift API as opt-in builds. A preview of S3 Tables exposes an Iceberg REST catalog for tools such as DuckDB and PyIceberg, and a documented migration path moves existing MinIO deployments across. Typical uses include backups, container registries, logs and traces, data lakes, and AI training sets.

With 10,100+ GitHub stars and 75 releases over a decade of continuous development, Healthchecks is the open-source cron job monitoring service that catches failures your other monitoring tools miss — the jobs that silently stop running, the backups that never completed, the nightly reports that disappeared without error. The dead man's switch architecture requires zero agent installation: your cron jobs, scripts, and services ping a unique URL via HTTP request or email, and Healthchecks alerts you only when a ping does not arrive within the configured Period and Grace Time window. Each check supports cron expression scheduling, optional start, success, and failure signals for measuring execution time, and HTTP body keyword filtering for intelligent alert routing. Twenty-five notification integrations cover every channel teams actually use: Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Splunk On-Call, Telegram, Signal, WhatsApp, SMS, email, webhooks, GitHub Issues, Pushover, ntfy, Gotify, Matrix, Mattermost, Zulip, Pushbullet, PagerTree, Spike.sh, and Trello. The web dashboard provides a visual grid showing real-time status with color-coded badges and per-check integration toggles. Monthly, weekly, and daily email reports summarize uptime trends with checks sorted by downtime duration. Team management supports projects with member roles and read-only access. Prometheus metrics expose check health and grace state for Grafana dashboards. WebAuthn and TOTP two-factor authentication secure accounts. Deploy via Docker images available for amd64, arm/v7, and arm64 architectures.
